Cannabis Use During Early Pregnancy and Child Diagnoses of Depressive and Anxiety Disorders.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objective: Prenatal cannabis use is associated with adverse pregnancy and neonatal outcomes, but research on its association with child anxiety and depressive disorders is limited. This study aimed to test the hypothesis that prenatal cannabis use is associated with child anxiety or depressive disorder diagnoses. Method: Population-based retrospective birth cohort study of children ( Results: The median age at pregnancy onset was 31 (inter quartile range [IQR] = 6) years. Most pregnancies (61.4%) were to non-White individuals; 4.4% screened positive for any cannabis use; 3.7% had a positive toxicology test and 1.9% self-reported use. Overall, 9,230 children were diagnosed with an anxiety disorder at median age of 8 (IQR = 3) years and 1,224 with depressive disorder at median age of 9 (IQR = 3) years. Prenatal cannabis use was associated with a lower risk of child anxiety disorders (aHR:0.84, 95%CI: 0.75-0.95), which remained significant when defined by a toxicology test but not by self-report. Maternal prenatal cannabis use was not associated with child depressive disorders (aHR:1.15, 95%CI: 0.85-1.54). Conclusions: Prenatal cannabis use during early pregnancy was not associated with an increased risk of offspring early onset anxiety or depressive disorders.
